Astrid and Josh Shemilt, of Munich, relax with popcorn in two jumbo jet (Boeing 747) seats installed in the front row of the new theatre opened at Wanaka's Cinema Paradiso on Saturday.

The seats were acquired by cinema owner Callum McLeod about five years ago and manager Garrick Cameron said they had all the airline features including tray tables.

Mr Cameron said the new theatre, seating 50 people, would allow art house movies to continue to be shown while ''blockbusters'' screened in the main 80-seat theatre.
